Moreover, as the light emitting mode of the light emitting element 87A, all the light emitting elements 87A emit light in red or green, and the light emitting elements 87A included in the specific block 85 emit light in a color that is neither red nor green, Since the special light emission mode in which all the light emitting elements 87A included in the block 85 emit red or green is provided, it is possible to increase the variation of the light emission mode.

  In the special light emission mode, it is possible to cause a silhouette different from the normal light emission mode to appear in the translucent part 95, and thus it is possible to increase variations in silhouette effects. Specifically, in the special light emission mode, a silhouette with enhanced decoration can be made to appear by the composite decoration unit 95E. Moreover, since the specific block 85 is arranged near the outer edge of the light transmitting portion 95, it is suppressed that the silhouette appearing in the light transmitting portion 95 is significantly different between the normal light emitting mode and the special light emitting mode. .

  Further, in the gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, since the translucent part 95 is formed by superimposing the first sheet 97 and the second sheet 98 on the base plate 96, the first decorative part 95A, the second decorative part 95B, and the third The decorative portion 95C and the base decorative portion 95D can be easily formed.

  In the present embodiment, the color of the first sheet 97 and the color of the second sheet 98 only have to be in a complementary color relationship. For example, the first sheet 97 may be blue and the second sheet may be orange.

  Moreover, the structure which does not have the cover sheet 99 (cover sheet piece 99H) as another form of this embodiment may be sufficient. Even with such a configuration, the above-described effects can be obtained.

<Coalition production>
In the gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, as described above, the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 of the movable accessory unit 40 are the closest to the standby position (FIG. 3) in the opposite direction and the closest combination. It is configured to be able to move directly between the positions (FIG. 2). And the game machine 10 is comprised so that execution of the unification effect which arrange | positions the 1st movable part 61 and the 2nd movable part 62 in the unification position is possible.

  By the way, the first movable part 61 and the second movable part 62 are rotated by the rotating body 81 which is a component of the first movable part 61 and the second movable part 62 (FIG. 8), and thereby the first light transmitting wall 86A. Is positioned on the player side (front side) (FIG. 9 (A)), and the second light transmitting wall 86B is positioned on the player side (front side) (FIG. 9 (B)). And change. As a result, in the gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 are combined in the first posture, the first combined effect (FIG. 2), the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion. The unit 62 is configured to be capable of executing two types of coalescence effects, that is, a second coalescence effect (FIG. 20) in which the units 62 are merged in the second posture. Thus, in the gaming machine 10, it is possible to give variations to the combined production by the first movable unit 61 and the second movable unit 62, and it is possible to improve the preference of the production. In the following description, the combined state of the movable unit 61 and the second movable unit 62 in the first combined effect is the first combined state (FIG. 2), and the first movable unit 61 and the second movable unit in the second combined effect. The combined state of 62 is referred to as a second combined state (FIG. 20), so that the combined state of the two movable parts 61 and 62 is appropriately distinguished.

  Here, the postures of the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 are both in the first posture in a state where the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 are disposed at the standby position (FIG. 3). Therefore, when the first united effect is performed, the first movable unit 61 and the second movable unit 62 are moved to the first position by simply moving the first movable unit 61 and the second movable unit 62 to the combined position (FIG. 2). One united state can be achieved.

  On the other hand, when the second combined effect is performed, in addition to moving the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 to the combined position (FIG. 2), the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 are moved. It is necessary to change from the first posture to the second posture, that is, to rotate the rotating bodies 81 of the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62. Here, when the first movable unit 61 and the second movable unit 62 in the standby position are changed to the second posture and then moved to the combined position, until the first movable unit 61 and the second movable unit 62 are combined. There is a problem that the interval between the two becomes longer and bores the player. In order to solve this problem, the gaming machine 10 executes the second combined effect as follows.

  FIG. 21 shows the flow of the second united effect in the gaming machine 10. When the second united effect is started, the first movable unit 61 and the second movable unit 62 are arranged at the standby position (FIG. 3). At this time, the postures of the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 are the first posture.

  When the second united effect is started, the first movable unit 61 and the second movable unit 62 move so as to approach each other as shown in FIG. At this time, the first inner movable body 61 </ b> A and the first outer movable body 61 </ b> B constituting the first movable portion 61 move downward in a state of being arranged without gaps, and the second inner movable body constituting the second movable portion 62. Similarly to the first movable portion 61, 62A and the second outer movable body 62B also move upward in a state where they are arranged without a gap. Then, as shown in FIG. 21B, the first movable part 61 and the second movable part 62 are arranged at the combined position. At this time, the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 are in the first combined state.

  When the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 are in the first combined state, both the movable portions 61 and 62 move away from each other as indicated by arrows in FIG. At this time, the moving speed of the outer movable bodies 61B and 62B is faster than the moving speed of the inner movable bodies 61A and 62A. Then, as shown in FIG. 21C, the first outer movable body 61B and the first inner movable body 61A that constitute the first movable portion 61 are separated from each other, and the second outer movable that constitutes the second movable portion 62 is formed. The body 62B and the second inner movable body 62A are separated. As another method for achieving the arrangement of the movable bodies 61A, 61B, 62A, and 62B shown in FIG. 21C, first, the outer movable bodies 61B and 62B are moved a little, and then the outer movable body 61B. 62B and the inner movable bodies 61A and 62A are moved, and the outer movable bodies 61B and 62B and the inner movable bodies 61A and 62A are moved simultaneously, and the inner movable bodies 61A and 62A are stopped first.

  Next, as indicated by arrows in FIG. 21C, the rotating bodies 81 and 81 of the movable bodies 61A, 61B, 62A and 62B rotate. Then, as shown in FIG. 21D, the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 change from the first posture (FIG. 9A) to the second posture (FIG. 9B). .

  Next, as indicated by an arrow in FIG. 21D, the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 move so as to approach each other. At this time, the moving speed of the outer movable bodies 61B and 62B moves faster than the moving speed of the inner movable bodies 61A and 62A. And as FIG. 20 shows, the 1st movable part 61 and the 2nd movable part 62 are united, and it will be in a 2nd united state.

  Thus, in the 2nd unification effect, after the 1st movable part 61 and the 2nd movable part 62 united with the 1st posture first and became the 1st united state, it changes to the 2nd posture. Therefore, the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 and the second movable portion 62 are compared with the case where the first movable portion and the second movable portion 62 are merged after changing from the first posture to the second posture. The united state of the unit 62 can be quickly shown to the player. Thereby, it becomes possible to suppress the extension when the second coalescence effect is performed. In addition, the first movable part 61 and the second movable part 62 are separated after the united state (first united state) once, and then the united state (second united state) again. In addition, the time during which the second movable portion 62 is moving increases, and it becomes difficult to bore the player.

  Further, when the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 are in the first combined state (first combined state), the outer movable bodies 61B and 62B and the inner movable bodies 61A and 62A are arranged without gaps. When moving to the second combined state (second combined state), the gap formed between the outer movable bodies 61B and 62B and the inner movable bodies 61A and 62A is narrowed. Thus, in this embodiment, the movement of the 1st movable part 61 and the 2nd movable part 62 when it becomes the 1st union state, and the 1st movable part 61 and the 2nd when it becomes the 2nd union state. Since the movement of the movable part 62 is different, it is possible to give different impressions to the player in the first and second combined states.

  As another form of the present embodiment, when the first movable portion 61 and the second movable portion 62 change from the first posture to the second posture, each movable body 61A, 61B, 62A, 62B is linearly moved. The rotating body 81 may be configured to rotate while being rotated.
